There are individual differences in the survival period of tongue cancer after intermediate stage resection. In medicine, the 5-year survival rate is generally used to indicate the survival period of patients, and the 5-year survival rate of tongue cancer after intermediate stage resection is about 60%. 1. Intermediate stage tongue cancer mainly refers to the situation that tongue cancer invades to the depth of muscle layer and is combined with lymph node metastasis in the neck. Therefore, for intermediate stage tongue cancer, radical surgical resection and systematic lymph node dissection should be performed, together with postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy, chemotherapy and even targeted therapy. 2. According to the textbook of oral and maxillofacial surgery, the 5-year survival rate of tongue cancer after medium-term resection is about 60%. It should be noted that tongue cancer patients can reduce the adverse effects of the disease through “early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment”, and many patients may survive for a long time, so it is recommended that patients establish confidence in treatment.
